January Jones: 'Mad Men will come back'

Mad Men star January Jones has insisted that fans should not be concerned about the future of the show.

A fifth season of the AMC drama is currently on hold, due to contract negotiations between the cable network, Lionsgate and series creator Matthew Weiner.

"I don't have any updates as of now [and] I still have not heard a date we need to be back to the set, but it will come back," Jones told Entertainment Weekly. "We just don't know when. But we usually shoot in spring and summer and it is only February, so people should relax."

She insisted that the contract issues between the three parties will eventually be resolved amicably.

"I think it will all get worked out, because no-one wants to see the show end yet," she said. "Not the studios or the network or the creator or the actors."

"I think they just like the drama," she suggested. "They like the build up."
